It is a funny worldâ€"this North Land. NOt to mention the South! cple alâ€" ways want something till they get ii. For instance, several have applied to the Timmins town council in the past year or two to have meters installed to keep track of the water used in the houses. These people think they are paying too much for the amJunt of water used and that a meter would show this and help out in this way. The council has no objection to the idea of meters, except the prohibitive exj\»nse involved by attempting to put meters in all the private houses. So, there are a number who request or deâ€" mand the installation of meters. At Haileybury, on the cther hand, the councii has decided on a general instalâ€" lation of meters, and you should hear WATER METERS INSTALLED BY TOWN OF HAILEYBURY will strengthen you and build you up.

In any ovent, water meters are being installed in Haileybury homes over the strenuous cbjection of many of the residents of the town. At a recent meeting of the Haileybury town council some nights ago, the town workmen who are engagâ€" ed in installing the machines, were inâ€" structed to cut the water off from any premises where the householder refused to permit the installation of a â€"meteor, as had occurred in some cases.

The members of the Timmins branch are no exception to the general run, but it can be said truthfully that as a branch, its members are giving genercusly of time and talent and in several other ways to promote the Serâ€" viceo idea. Hundreds of instances can * * * * 4* * 45 +4 SSESLEL SS EL SS 4+ the Porcupine The Canadian Legion in To return to the one farmer in Teck township, however! S. A. Horzempa, referred to as the township‘s only farâ€" mer, appeared. before the court of reâ€" vision at Kirkland Lake last week askâ€" ing for a reduction in the assessment on his farm property. "We certainly should give him some encouragement," Reeve Hunt remarked, "for he‘s the only farmer in the township." A.reâ€" duction of $800.00 in the assessment was made. Mr. Horzempa can truthâ€" fully claim that there is more than just empty honour in the fact that he is the only farmer in Teck township, when he gets a reduction in assessment on this score. At Kirkland Lake on Wednesday last the comedy, "The Talk of the Town" and the musical extravaganza, "The Toy Shop," were presented under the direction of Rosalind Barrett and make a big hit. These shows were given reâ€" cently at Timmins under the auspices of the Church of the Nativity and scorâ€" ed a decided success here. They were equally successful at Kirkland Lake. In these shows Mrs. Barrett uses local talent and the suscess attained at both Timmins and Kirkland Lake indicate the dramatic talent available in the North. As the people of the North come from all over the world it is not ed at that all sorts of talâ€" S. A. Horzempa who lives on the Dane road, between Kirkland Lake and Dane, is said to have the distinction of being the only farmer in the township of Teck, the same township as that in which the thriving town of Kirkland Lake is situated. Kirkland Lake, from present promises, may actually have city status without being a village or a town. A present it has more than the necessary population to entitle it to city standing. Before a town can beâ€" come a city it must have more than 10,000 population. Kirkland Lake passâ€" ed ~hat mark this year, having over 13;000 population now according to the assessor‘s figures, these figures being likely to be rather below than above the actual count. Still Kirkland Lake has asked no other municipal status that that of part of the Township of Teck. In this the people of Kirkland Lake have shown good judgment, as there are several advantages about beâ€" ing a township. In the same way Kirkâ€" land Lake is not likely to hurry any in getting into city standing. Some years ago Timmins found that the reâ€" sponsibilities of being a city are not to be lightly assumed and there are fair compensations, apart, perhaps, from the pride of being called a city. "TALK OF THE TOWN" PLEASES PEOPLE OF KIRKLAND LAKE At Kirkland Lake this year there is likely to be a contest for municipal honours. Those mentioned as likely candidates include all the present members of the Township of Teck council with the further addition of Wm. Ramsay and Armand Gosselin, the latter from Swastika, and the forâ€" mer an oldâ€"time resident of Timmins and Iroquois Falls G. D. O‘Meara, wellâ€"known barrister of Kirkland Lake, has been asked to contest the mayorâ€" alty and may do so. Norman Evoy, a former reeve, may also be another candidate. The only candidate, howâ€" ever, to definitely announce himself as in the field is the present rceve M. G. Hunt, who has been reeve for the past two years. Reeve Hunt has aannounced that he will be a candidate again at the present election. Nominations at Kirkland Lake will be on Friday, Nov. 25th, with elections on Dec. 5th. Compliments are in order, and these are extended to the generous persons who make it a regular practice to asâ€" sist the Legion in its work. Recent donations to the Timmins branch reâ€" lief. fund show the members where the real spirit lies. One or two more of a<similar nature would assist the Leâ€" gion greatly. ONLY ONE FARMER IN SAME TOWNSHIP ASsS KIRKLAND To date no action has been taken to rectify the exchange problem on Imperial pensions. In the meantime several of these people are starving. Action is needed at once before the grip of winter hits these exâ€"soldiers and their families. KIRKLAND LAKE REEVE TO STAND FOR REâ€"ELECTION The Timmins memorial is still a playâ€" ground for the children. A point noâ€" ticed on Armistice day was the manner in which the crowd used it for a grand stand to watch the approach of the parade:â€""Nuff sed." be quoted where members have put out a helping hand and assisted some comâ€" rade who was in unfortunate cirecumâ€" stances. _ One comrade recently went and chopped two cords of wood for a widowâ€"one example. Another took groceries to a family, pending the giving of a relief voucher. One particular point of Service was shown at the reâ€" cent clothing sale, when one comrade fitted out three boys. These are just casual items from the many similar actions. With its calls upon the genâ€" erosity of the public it is a point worth knowing that all the members of the Timmins branch of the Canadian Leâ€" gion are also doing their part and doâ€" ing it in noble way. Paragraphs of Interest A fact recently brought to light was that the number of soldiers who have died in the Christie street hospital, Toâ€" ronto numbered. 750. Fifty passed on last year, and at a service given in their honour the most touching thought was the one which asked how many will pass on in the coming year. â€"W. A. Devine "They were always political, always dealt with ideals, Your Honor," anâ€" swered the defendant, "just as in this case I came into the barroom, I stand at the bar and drink my beer and I hear somebody back of me say:. "Wars are not always reprehensible." I set my glass down and answer: "They are always reprehensible." And then somebody says: "We weren‘t talking to you." And then, Your Honor, I saw red and struck the fellow. I can‘t stand by and hear anybody defend war. I am an enthustastic pacifist. What are all the people in the courtroom laughing for?" Try The Advance Want Advertisements "One month‘s imprisonment and 60 marks fine," said the judge. "Gravely provoked, most gravely provoked," answered the man. The judge studied theâ€" defendant‘s record, and continued; "This is the eighth time you have been arrested on a similar charge. Always a brief dispute and then the blow. What was back of these . arâ€" guments?" "I shall appeal," said the prisoner. "T‘ll fight this to the end. ‘I am a pacifist." (Berlin Lokalâ€"Anzeiger). â€"The defendant a man around 40, was charged with assault and battery. The judge asked him: "You admit that on the evening in question you struck the, complainant in the face in the course of an arguâ€" ment in Hahnebrecher‘s beer hall?" After many years of service during which stoves have been used to heat the Cobalt fire hall, a furnace was inâ€" stalled in the tQuilding some days ago. The heating system installed is a hot water one. Despatches from Cobalt say that the fire hall has waited for forty years to have a furnace installed. There seems to be something wrong with this as Cobalt was not in exisâ€" tence forty years ago and so had no use for a fire hall. Probably thirty years is what the despatch meant to shay, as that would be nearer the mark. As a matter of fact the discovery of the famous silver deposits at Cobalt was not made until 1903 at the time that the T. N. 0. was being extended north to New Liskeard. However, even thirty years in this upâ€"t>â€"date counâ€" try is a long time for a fire hall to be heated by stoves. Those who hold a warm place in their hearts for "the best old town" will hope that Cobalt will live to see a new fire hall and new heating system in the next thirty years.

The Hon. Dr. MacLarent, â€" Minister of _ Pensions, promised our local member that he would give this matter his personal and he has fulfilled his promise. In a common phrase he must have a "fast worker," because within one week of the matter being mentioned all data and particulars had been obtained and Hussin was on his way to Christie street hospital. In the case of Sergt. Whatling the investigation proved that this man was in receipt of pension and a war. veterans‘ allowance, but was classed. as totally disabled . and. no doubt he will receive: pension covering the total amount received at present. In the Hussin case it was said that this man‘s disability would yield to treatâ€" ment if given opportunity, but failing that pension would be awarded. The man has gone for some more electric jolts and the doctors or specialists at Christie street hospital will have to do a much better job than the previous one. It would be a good thing to save all this experimentation and grant the man his pension, or else pay him well for his services to the science of elecâ€" troâ€"therapy because that is all it amounts to in the long run. All veterâ€" ans know of "The Miracle Cure" and are very pleased at the action of The Advance in pressing this case. The writer of this column takes this opâ€" portunity of thanking all concerned in bringing these cases to public notice and to make a perfect ending to all the facts as they have been stated it is hoped that The Advance will publish the final result namely "A Total Disâ€" ability Pension to each" at a not far distant date.

Horzempa, referred to as the township‘s only farâ€" mer, appeared. before the court of reâ€" vision at Kirkland Lake last week askâ€" ing for a reduction in the assessment on his farm property. "We certainly should give him some encouragement," Reeve Hunt remarked, "for he‘s the only farmer in the township." A. reâ€" duction of $800.00 in the assessment was made. Mr. Horzempa can truthâ€" fully claim that there is more than just empty honour in the fact that he is the only farmer in Teck township, when he gets a reduction in assessment on this score. "TALK OF THE TOWN" PLEASES PEOPLE OF KIRKLAND LAKE At Kirkland Lake on Wednesday last the comedy, "The Talk of the Town" and the musical extravaganza, "The Toy Shop," were presented under the direction of Rosalind Barrett and make a big hit. These shows were given reâ€" cently at Timmins under the auspices of the Church of the Nativity and scorâ€" ed a decided success here® They were ‘equally successful at Kirkland Lake. In these shows Mrs. Barrett uses local talent and the suscess attained at both Timmins and Kirkland Lake indicate the dramatic talent available in the North. As the people of the North come from all over the world it is not to be wondered at that all sorts of talâ€" en! ers: here io es mm uoys m e omm e s n omcs ons ns ce on ce in _ _2 i2 2 0 _ ; m â€" . \\{\\m\\\\\\\\\\\\\x\\\\\\\'\\\m\\\\ssx\\\\\\\\.\\x\\\‘\1\\\\\\\‘\v FURNACE INSTALLED IN FIRE | HALL AFTER MANY \'FAR.\‘: After many years of service during which stoves have been used to heat the Cobalt fire hall, a furnace was inâ€" stalled in the tQuilding some days ago The heating system installed is a hot water one Despatches from Cobalt say that the fire hall has waited for forty years to have a furnace installed There seems to be something wrong with this as Cobalt was not in exisâ€"| tence forty years ago and so had no j use for a fire hall. Probably thirty| years is what the despatch meant !nl say, as that would be nearer the mark.| As a matter of fact the discovery of the famous silver deposits at Cobalt was not made until 1903 at the time that the T. N. 0. was being vxlvndr‘d‘ north to New Liskeard. However, even| thirty years in this upâ€"toâ€"date counâ€" try is a long time for a fire hall to be heated by stoves. Those who hold a | warm place in their hearts for "the best old town" will hope that Cobalt| will live to see a new fire hall and new heating system in the next thirty years. THE PACIFIST PICTURED j IN ACTION IN GERMANYy! (Berlin Lokalâ€"Anzeiger) â€"The defendant a man around 40, was| charged with assault and b:nlmg\n‘; The judge asked him: | "You admit that on the evening in | question you struck the mmphlinunti in the face in the course of an arguâ€"| ment in Hahnebrecher‘s.beer hall?" "Gravely provoked, most gravely| provoked," answered the man. The judge theâ€" defendant‘s| record, and continued; "This is the eighth time you have} been arrested on a similar charge.! Always a brief dispute and then blow. What was back of these m‘-‘ guments?" "They were always political, always dealt with ideals, Your Honor," anâ€"‘ swered the defendant, "just as in this case I came into the barroom, I stand at the bar and drink my beer and I hear somebody back of me say: “Wa.rsi are not always reprehensible." I set my glass down and answer: "They | are always reprehensible." And then| somebody says: ‘"We weren‘t talking to you." And then, Your Honor, I saw red and struck the fellow. I can‘t stand by and hear anybody defend war. I am an enthustastic pacifist. What are all the people in the courtroom laughing for?" "One month‘s imprisonment and 60 marks fine," said the judge. "I shall appeal," said the prisoner. "T‘ll fight this to the end. ‘ I am a pacifist." Try The Advance Want Advertisements MILLWORK LUMBER Prompt Attention Given to all Kinds of Repair Work.
